Maybe it is just the picture then, because it almost looks slightly green to my eyes, especially the picture of the back.
maybe, it is not green though. it is natural mahogany back and neck, maple top. pics were taken with my phone, so the hues may be slightly off..
Ah, I see. I didn't realize it was a mahogany back. That could be why it looks slightly off color, especially when compared to that beautiful quilted maple top. Good luck with the sale! Someone here is going to get one hell of a bass.
Thanks! It always gets a bunch of questions. I guess people in my neck of the woods dont ever see premium grade wood on instruments.
BTW, I would much rather sell it to a loving home here on TB versus the bay. Some please make a repsectfull offer on her!
i'd buy that if i: 1) had money (GAS is bad) 2) didn't have another one coming via UPS right now 3) didn't already have my own Carvin LB75(F) someone buy this! it's too pretty too be sitting at home! not to mention it probably plays like a dream .
